I just want to show off my new avatar.

My girlfried was taking photos of me riding, and I was having a rest and she took what was basically lots of stills of me to make an animation. Take a look, takes 5 seconds to move.

First, an animation of me going straight to the back wheel on a see saw. It's not amazing quality, I took it with the spycam, just took lots of stills quickly.

I added a pause into it when I got to the top, becuase it's more true to life, once we are up there, we can hop around for ages, and we usually will stay up there for a short amount of time, i.e won't come down instantly.

This is an animated GIF by the way and probably not 56k friendly.

Here is one of me on a bench. Just to show precision really, onto the back wheel onto the first bit of the bench, and then onto the very fine edge of the bench (less that 2cm wide) where I can stall it on the backwheel for quite a bit before hopping off. I can obviously go straight onto it from the other side, but if anything thats easier.

Here is one last picture of my on my bike with no front wheel in, just to prove how balanced we are as riders.

None of these photos show of some ofhte bigger stuff I can do, but I thought you might like to see them. But what else can you expect from a semi-pro rider?

Spode...

So like how long did you have to wait until someone with a spare wheel came along...Is this an English thing!??":O}

I actually really quite impressed, a very high degree of proficiency indeed!!
